• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Passenger Foot Peg Extensions A

This mod has certainly been done before. I thank those that preceeded me for their posts. Mine is a little different. The passenger pegs are attached to a cast part. This casting has been broken by members of the forum. I felt that the extra leverage afforded by the extension might cause the cast attachment point to break. I ran my extensions both forward for the peg and back for a second attchment/reinforcement point. Below you will find 3 pictures of the Left side. I will do a second "B" post where I will post the pics for the right side. As with most of my custom mods I have to give credit to my good friend Phil :2thumbs: who is really the brains and brawn behind them ([email protected]) . If you are still interested proceed to B for a look at the Right side. Ryde Safe and Enjoy:thumbup:

I had the exact discusion today about the length adding leverage and breaking. This looks like the ticket here. I like it. Like it a lot. :2thumbs:
 
Did you use regular square tubing or solid stock? I an going to get the stuff to try it on mine today. I have metal cutting saws and welders if I can just be patient in the fabrication process I believe I can pull it off. Thanks for the great idea.
 
Peg Extenders

I recently purchased and installed these.
Phil shipped them out same day, and I had them 2 days later (by ground from Florida to Texas). Great purchasing experience.

Installation was a breeze. Very clear instructions and the kit included all the needed parts. I was shocked that he even included a small baggie of White Lithium Grease.

Haven't gone for any extended rides yet, but my passenger says it is much more comfortable and she enjoys stretching her legs out a bit more.

Highly recommended for anyone who rides 2-up!

Can you post pics of the exhaust side? Curious to see how close these move the passenger's heel to the pipe. Is this the guy that also has the heat shield for that side?
 
I bought these for my wife. I do not have pics right now, but my wife says her foot on the exhaust side is much cooler with these. Although her foot is closer, I guess being much further forward keeps the heat away.

Be safe!
 
Pic of the passenger side. I added foot plates to mine. A side view would show it better, but this is all I have.
